I have tried a number of scenarios for posting data, but I have come up with nothing. I am trying to write a power query that posts data to a REST API (https://ausreman.tidywork.com/api/materials), it posts data for materials. The current query I have is: = Json.Document(Web.Contents("https://ausreman.tidywork.com/api/materials",[Headers= [#"Authorization"="Basic ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ",#"Content-Type"="application/json"], Content=Json.FromValue({[projectId="65b6d1fe-ec2e-47c3-9c92-2aad8fdd1d26",userId="67220adb-d5cb-4667-a3ce-ebe3d6248334",materialDateUtc="2015-09-14T07:11:00",materialDate="2015-09-14T17:11:00",materialId="00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000",materialLocationId="1aeb9552-a3e9-4804-a7b2-641b290dac8d",materialItemCode="1H3338",materialItemId="f9be8264-81f0-4ae2-a12b-569b3e05d034",costCurrencyId="17709522-6b2e-4b01-9cdf-bb7eb0a43c52",chargeCurrencyId="17709522-6b2e-4b01-9cdf-bb7eb0a43c52",taskId="b2ffc2cf-326a-fc91-eb40-c4ddb4147a35",state="Approved",usageQuantity=1,quantity=1,cost=0.21,charge=0.25]})]), 1252) The only thoughts I had was that it had something along the lines of the size of the data being post.

Hi Experts, I need your help with this issue (Error 8657 accessing Dataverse contact table in Power BI/Excel). Microsoft Support just responded that it's a backend issue and they're unable to do anything about it. It's been a week since we started getting this error. Please help me to resolve it and guide me on what we can do next. Regards.73Views0likes8CommentsAppending columns and creating new column of old column headers
I have a table with data imported from multiple weather stations. The imported data has multiple rows of headers - one row giving the location/ID and one row giving the data variable. I have put an example of how the data looks below. I would like to append the columns so there is one column for rainfall etc from all locations. This would require a new column to identify the location for each row. I have tried to see if I can arrange this with Power Query but I can't find a way to get it to recognise two rows of headers. Or is there another way this can be achieved?Solved123Views0likes5CommentsAnti join custom query
Hi community, in ths time., I have two tables A y B, the tbale A have some columns are ID_CITY, ID_STATE, ID_COUNTRY, ID_YEAR, DESCRIPTION_MESSAGE, COUNT_PEOPLE, the other table B the columns are: ID_CITY, ID_STATE, ID_COUNTRY, ID_YEAR, ANNUAL_INCOME, AVERAGE_HEIGH, PERFORMANCE_SCORE, So with the anti right join (ID_CITY, ID_STATE, ID_COUNTRY, ID_YEAR) in power is get the rows than exists in table B but they don't in table A, so with the result create a "new records" with the same structure that table A and append this records in A. is this possible? custom function required? thanks in advance.Solved96Views0likes5CommentsConnect SAP HANA to POWER BI Desktop
Dear Experts, We have installed On-premise Gateway in Remote desktop and would like to connect SAP HANA and Power BI Desktop and create Reports on HANA Views. Please provide the step by step procedure and prerequisites to connect SAP HANA. i have searched in our community and it tells me that the prerequisites are SAP HANA ODBC driver SAP Netweaver RFC SDK. Do we need to install SAP HANA ODBC driver,SAP Netweaver RFC SDK in the Remote desktop where On-Premise gateway installed or it locally?

I am in the process of preparing the dashboards in Power BI. The data source is ODATA services from SAP. I am able to successfully get the data from SAP using the ODATA service call in Power BI. Now, i have a requirement. The Business user will change the date in PowerBI dashboard. I have to pass the selected date in the date slicer to the ODATA service URL as dynamic parameter. How to achieve this?Solved3.5KViews0likes4CommentsHigh volume Dataverse dataflow times out avoid NESTED FROMs and/or JOINs best approach to resolve?
Background We have a Gen1 Dataverse dataflow that calculates aggregate totals per record (yearly, prior-year, lifetime, and household rollups) and writes them to two output entities, Merge Account and Merge Contact. Each output entity is built from a chain of ~11 Table.NestedJoin (JoinKind.FullOuter) joins over ~12 upstream aggregate queries. The problem The dataflow refreshes without issue on smaller environments but times out on high-volume ones with: Microsoft SQL: "The updated two minutes (2) timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation. Please avoid using SELECT *, or NESTED FROMs and/or JOINs to execute the query with default five minutes (5) timeout." ErrorCode = 10478; Number = 40000 (Some environments show error 40197 instead.) It stops on the Merge step. What we've implemented so far We've built a monitoring solution: a cloud flow that detects dataflow refresh failures and logs the details (dataflow name, ID, and error message) into a custom Refresh Audit table, surfaced in a model-driven app so the team has visibility into failures. We've analyzed the failure across multiple environments and confirmed it correlates with data volume — the same dataflow completes on smaller datasets and times out on larger ones, with the filtered row volume and per-record density appearing to be the main drivers. We've identified that the full-outer joins don't appear to fold, so a large nested query is sent to the Dataverse TDS endpoint and hits the query timeout — i.e. it's a timeout, not a data/row error. Approaches we're evaluating — would these be effective? Increasing the query/command timeout for a Gen1 Dataverse dataflow — is that configurable, and where? Using Table.Buffer on the join inputs to force local evaluation and avoid pushing the nested query to the TDS endpoint — would this reliably help, or just shift the bottleneck? Staging the upstream queries into computed/staged entities (or a separate staging dataflow) — is this the recommended pattern, and does it need enhanced compute / premium? For very large datasets (1M+ rows), pushing the aggregation source-side (FetchXML aggregate / SQL view) — is this the more reliable long-term approach? Is there a supported way to get per-step timing / query diagnostics for a dataflow refresh, to pinpoint the heaviest step and enrich our monitoring? Any guidance on which of these works best for high-volume Dataverse dataflows with heavy full-outer join chains would be much appreciated. Thanks!Solved351Views0likes5CommentsCan't edit applied steps in Power Query Online (Dataflow)
Hi all, I am facing an issue during the Dataflow creation process. I am currently working with SAP BW as a Data Source. I used to work directly in Power BI Desktop where I had no issues but my customer decided to switch to Dataflows. The problem is that I want to edit the step where I added data to add more fields to the dataset itself. To achieve this, in Power Query in PBI Desktop i clicked on the gear icon next to the appropriate applied step: Switching to Dataflows, in Power Query Online I don't find this option anymore: It looks like the Dataflow step is locked. I still can perform the edit using the advanced editor but it is a bit tricky because I have to use the technical names associated to the fields by SAP BW. I did not find anything useful in the Microsoft Documentation. Can someone help?936Views0likes3CommentsAccess.Database and Web.Contents on Macs
Hi, Any expert on Power Query for macOS there ? 😉 I have an Access database in my Dropbox pro folder and I would like to to be able to work on it on my Mac when I am at home. So to connect the Access database to PQ without a local path, I can manage through Web.Contents() I can also manage to have it on another PC since this is not locally dependent on my PC at work However, I hav tried to use Web.Contents() in my Mac, I do see the file but I cannot drill down to the table as I cannot use the module Access.Database Any help, lead or workaround would be greatly appreciatedSolved12KViews0likes3Comments
